Meifort 2009 |
The blend for this Bordeaux style wine varies with the vintage. This one is Cabernet Sauvignon based with Cab Franc, Merlot, Petit Verdot & Malbec and is made in a lighter style than the classic Christine. It is still a big wine. |

Thelema Sauvignon Blanc 2013 |
Fresh, cool, very vibrant and expressive with layers of tangy fruit flavours - cruchy apple, limes, figs. So pure, so easy, so refreshing, so well balanced, so elegant. |
White Wine | Thelema Mountain Vineyards | Elgin | € 18,50 | |
De Trafford Chenin Blanc 2013 |
Possibly best dry Chenin Blanc in South Africa though lots of competition now. Beautifully complex wine with layers of flavours ranging from floral, citrus, baked apple & tropical fruit flavours but with an edge of minerality and a touch of honey botrytis character. Long lived wine which will constantly evolve. Extremely versatile food wine. Could be decanted at this stage. 14.5% Read more... |

De Trafford Cabernet Sauvignon 2008 |
Tiny yields from highly selected vineyard sites followed by destemming and crushing by hand followed by spontaneous natural yeast fermentation and eventual hand bottling in Jan 2010 created just 720 cases of this very special wine. Tight, restrained with complex berries, black olives, pencil shavings. A big dark, brooding wine that should be decanted and enjoyed with beef or venison. Will evolve for years. 15% Read more... |

Thelema Chardonnay 2013 |
This rich elegant chardonnay made in the Burgundian style is certainly a very serious wine. Fine buttery mouthfeel with ripe lime marmalade/pineapple flavours and creamy texture. Long-lived and refined. A classic. 13.4% Read more... |

De Trafford Elevation 393 2010 |
A special selection of Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon & Syrah grown at an elevation of 393m goes into this wine which is only made in the best vintages. Intense blackberry & fruit cake aromas and flavours marry with the dense tannins with a rich supple and complex mouthfeel. Very long. Drinking well now but will continue to evolve for several years. |
Red Wine | De Trafford Wines | Stellenbosch | € 47,50 | |
Kanu Rockwood Red 2011 |
A warm rich blend dominated by Shiraz with dashes of Petit Verdot, Cabernet Sauvigon, Merlot, Mourvedre, Grenache & Cabernet Franc. Makes for a really yummy juicy wine with Christmas spice flavours and soft velvety tannins. |
Red Wine | Kanu | Stellenbosch | € 16,90 | |
Kanu Chenin Blanc 2013 |
This crisp, easy drinking white from Mulderbosch’s sister winery displays fresh peach, melon, citrus, and tropical fruit flavours, with hints of almond and delicate floral and spice notes. A versatile and refreshing alternative to Pinot Gris, it works wonders with grilled vegetables, salads, pan-seared fish, smoked chicken, and light pasta dishes. |
White Wine | Kanu | Stellenbosch | € 16,90 | |
Ken Forrester Chenin Blanc 2007 |
Ken Forrester is renowned for his chenin blancs and this one is no exception. Warm ripe apple flavours reined in by grapefruit acidity. Lovely honey notes and round mouthfeel from judicious use of oak . Lovely in it’s youth but has the structure to last and evolve for several years. Very low yielding vines. |
White Wine | Ken Forrester | Stellenbosch | € 13,90 | |
Uva Mira Chardonnay 2008 |
An extraordinary chardonnay made in very small quantities with huge attention to minute detail in a remotebut amazingly beautiful site in Stellenbosch. It is so pure and understated but with layers of aromas andflavours and an incredible minerality. Great depth, elegance and so long. Very rare. |
White Wine | Uva Mira | Stellenbosch | € 34,50 | |
Morgenster Morgenster 2004 |
The blend in this 2004 Bordeaux style wine reflects the vintage conditions with a dominance of the early ripening Merlot supported by both Cabernets Sauvignon & Franc. The result is a truly opulent wine with huge concentration and structure, bags of fruit well supported by tannins. A real treat and one that will liveon for 15-20 years. |
Red Wine | Morgenster Estate | Stellenbosch | € 45,00 | |
Lurton Pinot Gris 2012 |
A refreshing change from Chardonnay. Lovely, fresh with floral & citrus aromas, spice and honey. Great to drink alone or with fish, chicken or oriental food. Great value. Different and interesting. |
White Wine | Lurton Wines, Mendoza, Argentina | Mendoza | € 12,45 | |
Domaine de la Bongran Tradition 1999 |
Jean Thevenet is the incontestable quality leader in the Mâconnais region yet his wines cannot bear their local appellation, Viré-Clessé, because the local committee does not consider them` typical’ of the area!!. His wines consequently carry the lower Mâcon-Villages appellation instead. In a sense, the committee is right, of course. Thevenet’s wines are much richer and more characterful than any other wine carrying the Viré-Clessé appellation. As is so often the case, the prophet goes unrecognised in his own land. |

Springfield Cabernet Sauvignon 2002 |
Jeanette Brewer says “Twenty three years ago we cleared a piece of rocky land that was deemed unsuitable for anything else and planted Cabernet Sauvignon. Today - we have lived with this wine so long, that to trade it for money is painful. It is a piece of our history, our passion, our labour and luck.” Made using very traditional methods and largely left to nature, this highly prized wine is made in small quantities and only released after six years. Drink now or over the several years. Wooden cases of 6 bottles. |
Red Wine | Springfield Estate | Robertson | € 42,00 | |
Thelema Sutherland Riesling 2011 |
A dry style of Riesling from the cooler Sutherland vineyard in Elgin. Fresh and fragrant with grapefruit and lime character. Quite rich yet beautifully balanced by the crisp acidity. Potential to evolve further with age. Light on the alcohol at only 12% - always a bonus! |
White Wine | Thelema Mountain Vineyards | Stellenbosch | € 16,70 |
